Intro:
C G C G <--(Continue into verse)
G C F7 G F
Joke me something awful just like kisses on the necks of "best friends"
C F7 G
We're the kids who feel like dead ends
C F7 G F
And I want to be known for my hits, not just my misses
C F7 G
I took a shot and didn't even come close
(C) (F7)(C) (G)
At trust and love and hope
(C) (F7)(C)(G)
And the poets are just kids who didn't make it
# G
and never had it at all
Amsus C G
And the record won't stop skipping
Amsus C G
And the lies just won't stop slipping
Amsus F7 G
And besides my reputation's on the line
Amsus C G
We can fake it for the airwaves
Amsus C G
Force our smiles, baby, half dead
Amsus F7 G
From comparing myself to everyone else around me
(Play riff and come back in with 'G')
G C F7 C G F
Please put the doctor on the phone 'cause I'm not making any sense
C F7 G
Blame everyone but me for this mess
C F7 G F
And my back has been breaking from this heavy heart
C F7 G
We never seemed so far
(C) (F7) (C) (G)
I'm hopelessly hopeful, that you're just hopeless enough
# G
But we never had it at all
Amsus C G
And the record won't stop skipping
Amsus C G
And the lies just won't stop slipping
Amsus F7 G
And besides my reputation's on the line
Amsus C G
We can fake it for the airwaves
Amsus C G
Force our smiles, baby, half dead
C F7 G
From comparing myself to everyone else around me
C F7 G
everyone else around me
C F7 G
everyone else around me
C F7 G
everyone else around me
C F7 G C
